Make sure you REMOVE the micro SD card prior to opening it! Otherwise you risk damaging the micro SD card port.
I just opened my tablet to change the battery, didn't realize this, and sure enough, broke it :(
Hope this helps you avoid that mistake.

How did you fix the sd card port?
It is VERY important that you do not bend the battery during removal!! Even more advisable is discharging the battery completely prior to replacement.... I accidentally bent the old battery while attempting to remove it and the battery heated up, bulged and then exploded!
